Grant Schemes for Historic Buildings
We operate grant schemes to assist with the repair of older
properties and to encourage the u
se of traditional methods and materials such as sliding
sash windows, lime-based render and the restoration of Victorian
shop fronts.
- Kendal Conservation Area Grant Scheme - offers
grant aid to promote the repair of older properties in the
Conservation Area
- Environmental Improvement and Shop Fronts
Grant helps owners improve historic areas and spaces in
Conservation Areas, and also helps specifically with the repair of
traditional shop fronts
We also promote the "conservation-led regeneration" of those
parts of Conservation Areas which experience economic need. Grant
schemes can make an important to objectives of wider regeneration
partnerships such as Ulverston 2000+ and the Kirkland Partnership
in Kendal.
A
Kirkland Facelift Scheme was launched in
November 2002 to promote the enhancement of the street frontage of
this historic part of Kendal.
